U+1893 "ᢓ" Mongolian Letter Ali Gali Pha Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
ᢓ
U+1893 "ᢓ" Mongolian Letter Ali Gali Pha is a specialized letter from the extended Mongolian script, used primarily in the Ali Gali orthography to transcribe Sanskrit and Tibetan sounds that do not exist in native Mongolian. This particular character represents a voiceless aspirated bilabial plosive, similar to the English "p" sound, and is part of a set of supplementary letters developed by Buddhist translators to accurately represent foreign phonetic elements in religious texts. Its inclusion in Unicode helps preserve and digitally support the historical and liturgical use of this script, which is essential for scholars and communities working with Central Asian manuscripts and translations.
